Traditional Debian Distribution 2004-08-03 (Sarge)


Debian Root 2004-08-03 [MD5] is a traditional linux root file system from the Debian (Sarge) distribution.

Initrd for Debian Root 2004-08-03 [MD5] is an initial ramdisk that is needed to bootstrap the Debian root file system.

The shell script, debian_install, can be run on a Linux x86 PC and will install a kernel and the root file system and the initrd on a hard drive such as an Hitachi Microdrive (TM). The script reformats the hard drive and creates three partitions:
    1) kernel and initial ramdisk
    2) swap space
    3) EXT3 root file system
README is a text file that describes the use of the debian_install shell script and provides notes regarding the root file system, initrd, etc.
